(I am sorry that this review sounds somewhat discombobulated. I've been making 'attempts' for over 2 weeks now. 'Every time' I start typing it I get tempted and press play 'again and again and again' - making it hard to focus on what I want to convey. I clearly lack discipline... ;3 )
From a technical standpoint, the video is put together very well. Both editing and animation are very clean and there is a constant visual 'flow' taking the audience along with it. I appreciate the love for the little details in the video: The use of shadows and lighting, despite the simpler style you use for characters; the 'Poltergeist' character hidden in the background (the "buttdancer"); the use of perspective for the skyscrapers...
The contrast, both on the road as well as in the lyrics, is very effective: The protagonist is trapped in a vehicle that is quite obviously out of control; yet none of the other drivers (who are also "on autopilot") even 'acknowledge' the situation - akin to the toll gate that is a mere automaton restricted to preprogrammed choices.
I hope you won't take offense to me putting it this way:
"Have I lost control // Or have I never had it?"
Not to over-analyze every single verse, but to me, this entire song is just one big metaphor for life. And while that's pretty dark, I love that about your song.
The only aspect I 'didn't' like was the triple use of the chorus at the end (one of them to complement the 'supporter-scroll'). It makes the song's lyrics appear more monotone than they actually are.
My apologies for not working harder on a more serviceable review, but I do not know if I will still be around on Newgrounds in a month's time - and I _certainly_ won't give YT another chance. (I'm not "quitting NG" over something sinister. I just need a longer break from internet-stuff.)
